  • Witness the rise of an enduring skateboard icon.
    The 46-year-old Olympic Skateboard Park discipline skater hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark, has built one of the longest and accomplished careers in modern-day skateboarding.
    At a time when vert riding was redefined by a new generation of pros, Glifberg brought a potent mixture to the table: A talent for blasting high airs, contorted with grace and style, mixed with kickflips and switch stance variations adapted from street skating into vertical terrain.
    Being able to land difficult tricks when it counts, Glifberg advanced to win the world’s most prestigious halfpipe competitions, sometimes several times in a row, including the Slam City Jam in Vancouver (1996, 1998), Tampa Pro (2003), Gravity Games (2001, 2004), Vans Pro-Tec Pool Party (2005, 2007, 2008), Mystic Sk8 Cup (2006), and Copenhagen Pro Vert (2007, 2009).
    Glifberg’s pro career also entered a highly successful second act when the competitive focus shifted from halfpipes to Park skating, a mixture of vertical bowls and street elements. Today, "The Danish Destroyer" is even designing public skateparks as a partner and co-founder of Glifberg - Lykke, a skatepark architecture and design office in Copenhagen.

    This is total badassery. Rune Glifberg is legendary. He was huge when I was skating and it's super awesome to hear his story. That dude is so untethered. He just lets go when on the board and is an excellent role model as well. Thanks for this killer video, Monster!

    The very first time I met this legend was some years ago in São Paulo- Brazil. It was happening a contest . He is quite humble. A lot of friend of mine have photographs with him. I didn’t have this opportunity lol. But, it was such an honor for meeting this legend. Great video, nice story!! Thanks for sharing!!

    I hope this inspires more of the earlier generation of skaters to compete in the Olympics and X-games.
    - Good luck at the Tokyo Olympics Rune!

    Rune is a true pro... I recall when I was a teenager skating in Copenhagen Skatepark around the time Rune turned pro - he was the most aggressive skater around. So much speed and huge tricks - he always had time to talk to us kids though. Genuinely the nicest guy you could think of... and helluva skater. Eternal respect to Rune - makes me feel proud to be a Dane :-)

    Great story! Rune taught me how to build Lego-"tonsers" when we were kids, riding BMX before skating, and alot of other stuff. Also, I should have saved the board he gave me that he had from Nicki. Oh well :D

      @Bentcop . biz right on, bro! I know Rune and some others are being called "ambassadors", so I dont know if that means they wont compete or what...
      Yeah, the Quicksilver Bowlriders comps in Marseille were some of my favorite to watch too. They seemed to have the same authentic and rad spirit as Munster, Tampa, Northhampton, and Slam City Jam. Of course Cards' 360 over that gap is the creme del la creme. I hate to hear that about AP. Sounds serious. Hope he has recovered.
      You're absolutely right. In the words of Skip Engblom, "Style is everything." Well put, Skip.
